There are difficult situations that are hard to decide the best way to handle. Here is one of the more difficult.
An 84 year old woman calls the office. She has been renting her house to her son who has not paid rent in 4 months. Her home is a 4 bedroom 4 bath home. She rents the upstairs to her son and the downstairs to another person. Her son is paying $300 a month for a 2 bedroom 2 bath that should rent for a minimum of $500 a month. The other person is paying $300 for a 2 bedroom 2 bath which should also rent for $500 a month. The rent includes approximately $250 a month for utilities including cable. She wants me to evict both of the tenants for non payment of rent.
The son has a criminal record. He keeps getting away with not going to prison. He is disabled and also is big on prescription drugs.
Here are some of the concerns
1.If eviction begins, will the mother ask it to stop?
- Will the son damage the house?
- Is he dangerous?
Stay tuned next week to see what happened
